Squeezing water from a stone: H2O in nominally anhydrous minerals from granulite xenoliths and deep, hydrous fractional crystallization

This is a mineral chemistry dataset on lower crustal granulites from the State Line District kimberlite, Colorado, USA. We report mineral major element compositions and mineral water contents analyzed by SIMS at the Caltech Microanalysis Facility. The minerals included are garnet, orthopyroxene, and clinopyroxene, and accessory minerals.
